Celebrity Ad and Event Styling in Mumbai
Behind every sharp ad campaign and red-carpet appearance is a story told through clothes. I focus on making that story bold, authentic, and perfectly suited to the moment.
A closer look at the styling for Kiara Advani's Stayfree campaign. The wind-swept hair and the detailed floral pattern of the Atsu Sekhose dress come together to create a feeling of freedom and confidence.
This full-length shot from the Stayfree ad shoot shows the complete silhouette of Kiara Advani's outfit. The asymmetrical, ruffled hemline of the dress was chosen to add a sense of graceful movement to the final visuals.

Another angle from the Stayfree shoot with Kiara Advani. This view highlights the puff sleeve detail of the dress, an important element I chose to add a touch of modern femininity to the commercial look.
A playful shot of Sara Ali Khan on the set of the Veet campaign. The styling, featuring a bold pink bow dress, was designed to be eye-catching and fun, even in more relaxed, behind-the-scenes moments.

About this collection
It is not just about the clothes. It is about the clamps, the safety pins, the industrial steamer running backstage, and the logistics of getting designer pieces back in mint condition after a 12-hour shoot. I manage the on-set chaos so you can focus on the camera.
Behind the Scenes
When you see a polished ad campaign, you are seeing the result of hours of logistics and technical preparation. My approach to celebrity and ad styling is built on handling the things that often go unnoticed but matter most.
My Process
- Commercial Strategy: Whether it is a high-voltage ad for a brand like Tinder or a relatable lifestyle look for Zarf Studios, I build a visual plan that aligns with the brand’s messaging. It is about balancing the brand’s goals with the celebrity's personal style.
- Logistics & Sourcing: My team and I handle everything from pulling garments from high-street brands to coordinating with designer showrooms for high-end pieces. We take care of transport, insurance for valuable items, and the return process so you have zero inventory mess.
- On-Set Execution: This is where the real work happens. I keep an industrial steamer on hand, use fabric tape for gravity-defying structures, and have a junior team on-site to handle wardrobe continuity between takes.
Why Work With Me
I believe in working collaboratively. When we style for an event or a campaign, it is not a solo effort. I coordinate directly with talent management for celebrities and brand teams to ensure the final result feels like a natural extension of the project. If the look grabs attention and feels real, that is the magic I am after. From managing a full-scale celebrity shoot with a two-person assistant team to fine-tuning a social media ad look, I make sure the process is smooth and the result is professional.
